Wake up Washington!

We're listening from sea to shining sea. You're taking away our rights to choose, funding for our healthcare and you're trying to take away our voice. Sorry. We're not listening. We're Angry, Unified and We've had enough. Some of us our members of NOW, Some of us are members of Planned Parenthood and some of us are members of NARAL. No matter....we're all women and we've had it.We're the men who love us too. We're strong in numbers and we control a huge voting bloc. Please start listening if you want to keep your jobs come November because we're done being polite about this.

About Patriots for Change

This page is for my mother. She loved the group Patriots for Change, which was a small but mighty group that emerged during the Bush years, but they seem to have disappeared from existence. I buried her with her Barack Obama button...she was working on his campaign when she died. So I'm going to see if I can bring that dream back to life.

I learned from my mother very early on that if you didn't have fifteen minutes every day for at least four days a week to spend protecting your democracy, that you probably needed to come very close to losing it to appreciate it even more.

We are very close..closer than I've seen in my lifetime yet I see this as a cause for optimism. We've got a lot of people really motivated. Frankly? We don't have any more time to freak out.

Now is the time for action. I discovered long ago that getting into action and being unreasonable is the key to feeling better about whatever is happening around you. And, you've got to get a life too. So pick three things to work on fifteen minutes a day, 4 days a week. Fifteen minutes....that's it. I know that you've got the time. Then go about your way being happy..living your life.

That's the best revenge.

Here are my three....

Women's Rights. Freedom of Speech and the Press. Animal and Environmental Rights.

What are yours?
